Many individuals pay little to no attention to their roof as it is out of site and therefore, out of mind. Although, homeowners who do pay attention to their roof and know the tips and tricks of keeping it in top condition, reap the benefits for years on end. The reason for this being that their these proactive steps protect their home both structurally and financially. A lot of the steps taken to prolong a roofs life are cheap and quick processes that end up saving homeowners a wealth of dollars down the line.

Whether your roof is brand new or a few years old, it is never too late to start implementing these procedures in an effort to lengthen the lifespan of your roof. This is especially true considering the roof of a home is such a big investment. Although no one can control factors such as the weather, there are a variety of steps homeowners can take to minimize the elemental impact on their roof as well as maximize its lifespan.

Tips For Reaching Peak Condition

Inspect Twice a Year:

Getting a professional inspection twice a year may seem obvious and even a bit overboard but this is not the case as inspections are crucial to preventative roof maintenance. Many roofing experts are trained to identify issues that most homeowners would not even know to look out for and because of this, a simple inspection can reveal an easily resolved problem that would have otherwise turned into an expensive issue.

Fix Any Issues Promptly:

As stated above, any problems that are identified should be addressed immediately as they can quickly evolve into expensive and potentially dangerous issues. Things such as curling or missing shingles and leaks can lead to the roof becoming rotted and structurally unsound.

Trim Nearby Branches:

Throughout the year one of the greatest dangers to roofs is overgrown trees. Winds and snow, especially here in the northeast, can lead to large branches snapping off of trees and damaging roofs. Even if the branches do not break and fall, they can smack your roof due to high winds or even grow directly into your roof.

Keep Gutters Clean:

There are numerous issues that arise during any season when gutter health is not maintained properly. Water can enter the roof through either clogged or hanging gutters which is why they should be kept clear of leaves and checked regularly to ensure that they’re not hanging.

Energy Efficient Windows

The Positive Impact of Energy Efficient Windows

Almost every homeowner has a list of home improvements that seems to never end. More likely than not, replacing the home’s windows is included. Although, maybe not as high on the list as it should be. The reason for this is because replacing a home’s windows is not always something that is believed to be extremely beneficial or even something that will have any sort of lasting impact at all. But this cannot be any further from the truth. What many individuals do not know is that the benefits provided by properly installed energy efficient windows can help with both issues of appearance and finance. Many homeowners overlook the incredibly positive impact that energy efficient windows will have on the well being of not only their home but those in it as well.

Energy Cost & Savings:

Whether it is a summer, winter, spring, or fall, energy efficient windows provide savings year-round. Throughout warmer seasons when cooling is required, installing energy efficient windows will significantly reduce solar heat gain. In addition to this, they provide homeowners with clean and clear views of the nice weather outside. During the colder seasons, many problems can arise from non-energy efficient windows such as heat loss and air leaks. These then lead to issues including discomfort and condensation, which also decreases visibility.

Increased Visibility:

The amount of daylight and view provided by a window are two of its most important factors. Outdated windows that are not energy efficient are prone to condensation. Many homeowners do not think twice when they see condensation on the windows although it is indicative of windows that need upgrading. By improving your home’s windows to energy efficient windows, you can decrease the condensation buildup and optimize the home for daylight and visibility.

Decreased Fading:

Carpet, fabrics, paper, artwork, paints, and wood are organic materials that may fade upon exposure to sunlight. The type and intensity of transmitted radiation can be influenced by window selection. UV rays contained within sunlight are the most harmful due to their high levels of energy and ability to break chemical bonds. This breaking is what leads to fading and degradation within organic materials.
